‘Bamboozled.’ Hawley mentors stunned by conduct, but early warning signs were there https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article248663695.html

Guevel, 87, who said her daughter babysat Hawley a few times as a child, said she viewed him as a person who had never been told “no” as a child and that she was not shy about sharing her opposition when he appeared on the Missouri political scene.

“I told people when he was running for attorney general, I wouldn’t vote for him for dog catcher. I wouldn’t inflict that on the dog,” said Guevel, who said she votes for both Republicans and Democrats.

“ Hawley warned against depicting all militia members as domestic terrorists after the Oklahoma City bombing, which killed 168 people, including 19 children. ”
